Large Venetian Mirror Made Of Engraved And Ground Murano Glass, 1950s

An important and refined Venetian mirror crafted in the 1950s in the finest Murano tradition, characterized by a level of craftsmanship far above average and by rich decoration created entirely from hand-crafted glass elements.The structure features an elegant, undulating, and dramatic silhouette, embellished with frames of finely cut clear glass, torchon elements, and floral appliqués of great decorative impact. Particularly noteworthy is the quality of the floral engravings on the side mirrors and the upper pediment, where a delicate vase of flowers unfolds among scrolls and foliage in a style typical of Venice.The numerous floral glass appliqués—some of which feature fine golden inclusions embedded in the glass mass using traditional Murano techniques—contribute to creating a refined play of light and reflections. The interplay of clear glass, engravings, and delicate golden accents lends the piece a distinctive luminosity and remarkable decorative richness. Its substantial size makes it particularly well-suited to both classical and contemporary settings, where it can serve as the primary decorative element.The original mirrors exhibit slight and widespread oxidation due to age, which attests to their authenticity without compromising their functionality or aesthetic appeal. These marks contribute to giving the piece the charm and character that collectors of Venetian mirrors seek. The overall condition is very good; there are only a few minor chips along the edges, consistent with its age and use, as well as a small chip on one petal of the upper rosette—details of little visual significance.Dimensions: Height 130 cm, Width 83 cm.
